OPEN  SHED  FANCY  LOOMS, 


WE  CLAIM   FOR  OUR  LOOM: 

1.  Making  Superior  Goods  by  reason  of  its  open  shed  peculiarity. 

2.  Freedom  from  Mispicks  by  reason  of  its  positive  motion,  both  on  the  har- 

nesses and  boxes. 

3.  The  facility  with  which  the  pick  is  found,  when  lost  by  reason  of  the  break- 

ing of  tilling. 

4.  The  box  chain  controls  the  boxes  positively,  and  will  call  any  one  designated 

by  the  chain  without  any  setting  of  cams  or  lifters.  The  boxes  at  each 
eiid  are  operated  independently  of  each  other,  so  as  to  use  conveniently 
seven  shuttles. 

5.  Great  speed,  on  account  of  the  peculiar  harness  and  box  motion  which 

enables  the  loom  to  produce  a  large  per  cent,  more  goods  than  any  other 
fancy  loom. 

6.  Saving  in  power,  on  account  of  only  moving  such  harnesses  as  are  required 

in  the  pattern  at  each  pick.

PREFACE. 


The  National  Association  of  Wool  Manufacturers  has  been 
led  to  the  publication  of  this  volume  by  the  great  need,  long 
felt,  for  a  manual  of  authentic  wool  statistics,  similar  to 
"  Cotton  Facts,"  annually  published  for  fifteen  years  by  Mr. 
A.  B.  Shepperson,  of  New  York.  It  has  seemed  to  the  man- 
agement of  the  Association  that  in  no  other  way  can  it  better 
serve  the  interests  of  the  industry,  than  by  authorizing  this 
publication,  with  an  assurance  of  its  accuracy.  More  and 
more,  as  time  passes,  the  great  industries  are  conducted  on 
the  basis  of  accurate  statistical  information  of  the  production, 
movement,  and  consumption  of  raw  material  and  product ;  and 
the  wool  trade  and  manufacture  are  greatly  handicapped  in  the 
United  States  by  the  lack  of  a  standard  compendium  of  the  data 
relating  to  wool. 

The  great  bulk  of  the  information  contained  in  this  volume  is 
almost  daily  required  in  some  branch  of  the  wool  business,  and 
has  hitlierto  been  accessible  only  in  trad^  circulars,  or  widely 
scattered  through  official  documents  hard  to  obtain. 

The  aim  has  been  to  make  a  book  easily  carried  in  the  pocket, 
and  yet  containing  every  item  of  statistical  information  ordi- 
narily required  in  the  course  of  his  business  by  the  wool  manu- 
facturer, the  wool  grower,  the  wool  buyer,  the  wool  importer  or 
broker,  the  commission  merchant,  the  mill  agent,  superintendent 
or  overseer,  the  manufacturer  or  dealer  in  mill  supplies,  the  sta- 
tistician, and  the  public  man. 

Its  contents  include  all  available  data  regarding  the  wool  clip 
of  every  country,  the  consumption  of  all  manufacturing  nations, 
the  prices  of  wools  for  a  long  series  of  years,  the  export  and  im- 
port trade  of  the  wool  manufacturing  nations,  and  especially  the 
imports  of  wool  and  woolens  into  the  United  States.    To  these 


8 


are  added  shrinkage  tables,  and  the  yarn  tables  and  other 
computations  ordinarily  used  in  textile  mills ;  all  the  Census 
statistics  of  the  wool  manufacture  for  1890;  and  official  data 
regarding  the  machinery  capacity  of  other  nations.  Finally, 
the  wool  and  woolen  schedule  of  the  tariff  act  of  1890  is 
added  in  a  convenient  form  for  reference. 

No  such  mass  of  statistical  information  regarding  wool  and 
its  handling  has  ever  before  been  published  in  so  convenient 
a  form  in  this  or  any  other  country. 

Great  pains  have  been  taken  to  secure  absolutely  authentic 
data.  Official  figures  are  given  wherever  possible,  and  in  all 
cases  the  source  of  information  is  stated.  In  some  cases  the 
figures  of  different  authorities  are  at  variance ;  in  such  cases, 
both  authorities  are  stated. 

We  are  under  obligations  for  advice  and  assistance  in  the 
preparation  of  this  Handbook  to  Hon.  S.  G.  Brock,  Chief  of 
the  Bureau  of  Statistics,  Hon.  J.  R.  Dodge,  Statistician  of  the 
Department  of  Agriculture,  Hon.  John  A.  Tibbits,  U.  S.  Con- 
sul at  Bradford,  England,  Mr.  George  William  Bond,  Mr. 
William  G.  Benedict,  of  Denny,  Rice  &,  Co.,  Mr.  Edward  N. 
Fenno,  of  Fenno  Bros.  &  Childs,  Mr.  Charles  F.  Avery, 
of  Mauger  &  Avery,  The  McNaughton  Co.,  Mr.  A.  B. 
Shepperson,  of  "  Cotton  Facts,"  Mr.  W.  A.  Blanchard,  of 
Boston,  Mr.  Albert  Chapman,  of  Middlebury,  Vt.,  Mr.  Curtis 
Guild,  Jr.,  editor  of  the  Boston  "  Commercial  Bulletin,"  Mr.

merce," Mr.  Edward  D.  Page,  of  Faulkner,  Page  &  Co.,  Mr. 
E.  B.  Biggar,  of  the  "Canadian  Journal  of  Fabrics,"  and  many  J 
others,  without  whose  kindly  interest  and  assistance  the  As- 
sociation could  not  have  presented  a  book  so  free  from  errors 
and  so  generally  trustworthy. 

We  have  drawn  very  freely  from  the  wool  circulars  of  Hel- 
muth  Schwartze  &  Co.,  Windeler  &  Co.,  Dalgety  &  Co.,  and 
the  "  Bradford  Observer,"  and  our  obligations  to  all  these 
houses  are  publicly  acknowledged.

GLOSSARY  OF  TRADE  TERMS. 

BY  CHARLES  F.  AVERY. 

Wools  grown  in  the  United  States  (except  in  a  few  of  the  older  Middle 
States)  are  generally  shorn  without  washing,  and  the  product  of  each  eheed 
(called  the  clip)  is  tied  into  a  bundle  and  termed  Xhe  fleece. 

The  terms  used  in  the  wool  trade  to  designate  domestic  wools  refer  to 
condition,  or  degree  of  cleanness;  quality,  or  degree  of  fineness;  and  staple, 
or  length  and  strength  of  fibre. 

American  wools  are  usually  collected  from  the  growers  as  produced. 

Condition. 

Washing.  —  Sheep  are  driven  into  watercourses  and  a  portion  of  the  yolk 
Cnatural  secretion  through  the  skin,  held  in  suspension  in  the  wool)  and 
dirt  washed  out  before  shearing. 

Unmerchantable  Wool.  —  Wool  poorly  washed  is  known  as  unmerchant- 
able. 

Unwashed  Wool.  —  Wool  on  which  no  attempt  at  washing  has  been  made 
is  called  unwashed. 

The  condition  of  washed  wools  is  growing  poorer ;  fifteen  years  ago  fine 
wools  lost  in  scouring  48  per  cent,  and  sometimes  less;  the  average  present 
loss  in  Ohio  and  Michigan  wools  is  nearer  55  per  cent. 

Scouring,  —  Wool  washed  perfectly  clean  by  mechanical  and  chemical 
processes  in  machines  prepared  for  that  purpose  is  known  as  scoured  wool. 

Quality. 

The  qualities  are  Picklock,  XXX,  XX,  X,  No.  1  (or  half-blood).  No.  2 
(or  three-eighths).  No.  3,  or  quarter-blood,  and  coarse  or  common.  These 

qualities  are  liable  to  variation  in  many  wool-houses,  according  to  the  vary-  i 

ing  demand.  i 

Picklock  (now  very  scarce)  is  the  quality  produced  from  a  pure  Saxony  | 

sheep.  I 

XXX.  — The  first  cross  of  the  merino  with  the  Saxony.  i 

XX.  — The  true  standard  is  the  quality  of  a  full-blood  merino.  | 

X,  —  Is  three-quarter  blood  merino.  j 

No.  7,  No.  2y  etc.,  indicate  the  variations  in  purity  of  blood  from  the  i)ure  ! 

merino,  from  crossing  with  common  sheep.  \ 

Coarse  Wool.  —  The  product  of  sheep  with  but  little  trace  of  merino  ' 
blood. 

Braid  Wool. — The  clip  of  bright-haired  (lustrous)  wooled  sheep,  almost  I 

pure,  as  Lincoln,  Cotswold,  and  Leicester.  ! 

Staple. 

Wools  are  classified  according  to  staple  into  clothing  wools,  combing  wools, 
and  delaine  wools. 

Clothing  Wools.  —  Wools  to  be  carded. 

Combing  Wools.  —  Wools  to  be  combed  so  as  to  leave  the  fibres  parallel. 

Delaine  Wools.  —  Practically  combing  wools  of  merino  blood,  and  may  be 
called  fine  (X  and  above),  or  medium  (half-blood). 

Felting  Wools.  —  The  semi-annual  clips  of  portions  of  Texas  and  Califorr.ia 
are  sometimes  so  designated. 

Noils,  —  The  refuse,  short-stapled  wool  resulting  from  combing. 


"  ofrading  is  the  arranging  into  qualities  without  untying  the  fleeces. 

Sorting  is  done  by  the  manufacturer,  who  separates  the  fleece  into  differ- 
ent (fualities  or  sorts  according  to  fineness,  length  and  strength  of  staple, 
whiteness,  etc.,  and  is  the  first  process  of  manufacturing. 

Neck,  breech^  belly,  etc.,  indicate  the  location  where  grown  on  the  body  of 
the  sheep,  but  the  nomenclature  of  sorts  varies  in  different  mills. 

Skirting.  —  The  separation  of  the  inferior  portions  from  the  fleece. 

Tags'.  —  A  sort  of  short  dung  locks. 

Pulled  Wool.  —  Wool  from  slaughtered  sheep.  It  is  rubbed  off  after  soak- 
ing the  skin.  Pulled  wools  are  classified  according  to  quality  and  length  of 
staple.  For  quality  the  terms  are  XX,  Extra,  A  Super,  B  Super,  C  Super, 
etc.;  for  length,  Combing  and  Delaine. 

Latnbs*  Wools  are  pulled  from  lamb  skins,  and  are  sometimes  subdivided 
into  qualities  by  the  large  pullers. 

Shearlings.  —  The  short  wool  obtained  from  skins  of  sheep  shorn  before 
slaughtering.    Used  principally  by  hatters. 


The  I^Mnell  Automatic  ^prin^lep. 

Especially  Constructed  to  re- 
sist the  effects  of  adhesive  corrosion 
or  sediment  both  inside  and  outside 
the  Sprinkler. 
A  Class  Valve,  non-corrodible, non- 
adhesive,  and  impenetrable.

Note.  —  The  Sheep  and  Lambs  of  1890  produce  the  Wool  of  1891.  The 
number  slaughtered  during  the  year  is  shown  by  tlie  number  of  Lambs  in 
1891,  minus  the  aggregate  increase  of  Sheep  and  Lambs.  Thus  :  Lambs,  in 
1891,  12,883,212  — increase  of  Sh^ep  and  Lambs,  1,8  )8,685=11,024,527,  which 
at  3  pounds  per  fleece,  being  the  estimated  loss  of  wool,  gives  33,073,581 
pounds.  The  figures  in  the  above  estimate  are  exclusive  of  the  Isle  of  Man 
and  Channel  Islands

Increase  to  date  as  compared  with  the  corresponding  period  last  j  ear, 
152,738  bales.  The  total  production  will  again  show  a  substantial  increase, 
although  an  estimate  would  at  present  be  hazardous. 

Throughout  the  whole  of  the  pastoral  areas  the  prospects  of  the  season 
are  prosperous.  In  New  South  Wales  the  rainfall  has  been  somewhat 
light,  but  is  not  a  cause  for  anxiety  at  present,  feed  being  abundant.  Bush 
fires  have  been  rather  prevalent,  and  in  some  districts  have  caused  loss. 

Rates  of  freight  to  London  per  sailing-vessel  are  gd.  per  lb.  for  Greasy, 
and  Id.  per  lb.  for  Washed;  and  per  steamer  9-16d.  for  Greasy,  and  ll-16d. 
for  Washed,  for  March-April  London  sales. 

Exchange  on  London,  60  days'  sight  at  |  per  cent,  discount  buying,  and 
5  per  cent,  premium  selling.

No.  90.  — The  World's  Wool  Production  in  1891. 

The  following  table  is  based  upon  the  estimates  of  Dr.  F.  X.  von  New- 
mann  Spallart,  Stuttgart,  published  in  1887.  His  figures  of  wool  production 
are  given  in  the  first  column ;  our  own  in  the  second.    The  additional 
information  is  derived  mainly  from  United  States  Consular  Reports,  and

No.  91.  — Number  of  Sheep  in  the  World. 

The  following  table  is  based  upon  the  estimates  made  by  Hon.  J.  R. 
Podge,  Statistician  of  the  Department  of  Agriculture,  for  the  Special 
Report  of  the  Bureau  of  Statistics  on  Wool  and  its  mauufacture.  published 
in  1886.  All  available  data,  including  the  U.  S.  Consular  Reports,  has  been 
carefully  considered  in  making  up  the  estimates  for  1891.  In  the  absence 
of  information  we  do  not  change  Mr.  Dodge's  figures.  There  is  no  doubt 
that  the  sheep  industry  is  declining  in  France,  Germany,  Spain,  Austria- 
Hungary,  and  Italy,  and  somewhat  increasing  in  Russia,  where  the  home 
consumption  is  enormous.

Np.  1  yarn,  a^id  to  determine  the  size  or  number  of  a  thread  composed  of 
strands  of  different  numbers  twisted  together,  it  is  only  necessary  to  add  to- 
gether the  proportionate  sizes  of  the  separate  strands.  A  single  example 
will  illustrate : 

3  run,  4  run,  5  run,  and  6  run  twisted  toi^ether  will  make

No.  98.  — Cotton. 

1\  yards  =    1  thread,  or  round  of  the  cotton  reel.

840      "     =  560  =  7  skeins  =  1  hank. 

The  number  of  hanks  in  one  pound  is  the  number  of  cotton  j^arn. 
The  number  of  yards  of  cotton  yarn  that  weigh  8.33  grains  is  the  number 
of  the  yarn. 

The  numbers  by  which  cotton  sewing  threads  are  sold  represent  three 
threads  of  the  number  twinted  together;  that  is,  No.  60  standard  thiead  lins 
three  strands  of  No.  60  yarn  in  it.  In  a  six-cord  thn^ad  e;ich  of  the  three 
strands  is  make  up  of  two  threads  twisted  together.  Six  threads  of  No.  120 
made  six-cord  No.  60. 

The  French  system  of  numbering  is  based  on  the  Metric  system. 

The  metre  =  39.37  inches,  and  is  tho  standard  of  length.  The  Kilogram 
(2.2)47)  pounds)  is  the  standard  weight  in  numbering  yarn,  and  the  number 
of  thousand  metres  in  a  Kilogram  is  the  number  of  the  yarn.  No.  28  yarn 
would  be  No.  47.42  in  France.

Yarns  are  graded  hy  the  number  of  runs,  cuts,  hanks,  or  leas  required  to 
make  one  pound;  thus,  1,600  yards  woolen  yarn,  weighing  1  pound,  is 
known  as  1  run  yarn ;  if  3,200  yards  are  required  to  weigh  1  pound,  the  yarn 
is  known  as  2  run,  etc.  The  same  principle  is  used  with  other  textile  fabrics. 
Spun-silk  yarns,  however,  have  the  same  number  of  hanks  per  pound,  and 
the  same  yardage  in  the  2  ply,  S-ply,  etc.,  as  in  the  single  numbers.  In 
cotton,  wool,  and  worsted  yarns  the  number  mdicating  the  doubling  is  put 
before  the  count  number  (2/40'8).  In  spun-silk  this  method  is  reversed; 
thus,  40/2's.
